Hello all - well, I read this entire string, just to see how it would turn out. I am a "newbie" as well (Phantom 2 V+) V2, flying since early November, 40+ flights, and truly enjoying the experience. I must acknowledge that there is QUITE a learning curve, but that is part of the fun of it. Lot's of material to read (my Phantom came with an outdated manual, so I learned from this forum to download the most recent one), lots of videos available to watch to understand how the Phantom operates, lots of software to download and install, just so you can ensure that your RC, Phantom, and batteries have the latest firmware, and serious attention needed to your pre-flight checklist in terms of GPS, home position, compass orientation, etc. OK, I know I am preaching to the choir here, but...
Nowhere in this string did I see anyone simply ask whether he was flying in Phantom mode, or NAZA mode. For me, NAZA mode, with IOC activated, has the huge advantage of Home Lock, so when you lose visual on your Phantom, you can bring your Phantom home at its current altitude, regardless of orientation,rather than RTH, wherein Phantom will attempt to go home at the pre-determined RTH altitude, whether that altitude is a good idea or not, and once you have your Phantom in view, you can simply return the S1 switch to the upper position and resume control, without having turned off your RC.
All that to say, this is a fascinating and fun technology, and who knows where it will take us. I see no reason to be rude or unhelpful to those that are plunging in, and seeking to learn.
